[Fascinate General] artvandelay440:
I'd like to thanks the mods for their service to the community. You guys don't get paid to do this stuff, so we appreciate it. As for the developers, it's obvious that we all should have the utmost respect and thankfulness for all of them, as they contribute to the functionality and usability of our phones and expect nothing in return. The only thing that really, really hacks me is when people expect nice little packages to be delivered to their phone, (bug-free) and become downright donkey holes when they are asked to learn something themselves. XDA is a learning and collaboration portal, and those who demand something for nothing immediately give the lot of us a bad name. Keep up the good work mods and devs.
[Fascinate General] ashasaur:
Thanks bro. Much appreciated. We DON'T get paid to do this, we are all here on a volunteer basis.

People have forgotten what XDA is truly about...DEVELOPMENT and COLLABORATION between users who want to get the most out of their devices, not a place to come and make your phone 1337.

But alas, all this will turn into is a flame war, so hey, hers some moderation since I apparently don't do my job. /s

If they did a simple black one with that zippered expandable spine to fit the keyboard I will be all over it! But they are on the right track
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] thaibruin:
Man. that looks like a pretty nifty case. I just ordered the slim one though... and that was after I got a cruddy ebay case... I'm going to end up spending way too much on cases! :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] kamfl610:
It does look nice. I'll wait to see if someone gets it and gives their review. Thanks for letting us dock owners know.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] domin8:
Yeah I really like the zipper expandability of it, I just don't know if the pattern is feminine or professional...I'm on the fence LOL. If they do a different finish ill be all over it!

I've found a few tutorials on how to make Edify scripts, but nothing on the actual packaging and signing...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=936175

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=994940

It looks like it's just a regular JAR file with extra code added to it. Is it more similar to an APK?

Any help/links are appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Bumping my own thread.

I was telling Raver about this script, it's pretty handy, it signs and creates the zip files for you, and if you don't want to learn how to make edify scripts, it'll even create them for you. I think it's easier to learn by example (looking into update-scripts for CWM ROMs), but you can make them without knowing the syntax with this

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=717437

This winds up making a proper manifest file with checksums and signs the zip file.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mike-y:
Nice find.. so if I'm reading this right, I can make a theme, and then use this program to sign my zip file after I'm finished, sot that it flashes correctly in cwm, correct?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Yup. :D Really handy.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
I won't quite call it a "pointless bump" but the script mentioned above appears to have been a Windows script. Additionally, the original link is not longer providing the expected content.

You can get the Windows script from http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11078426&postcount=194

I'm more than comfortable with `Nix command line and have the Android SDK, NDK, and AOSP build environment installed.

Like FB, I can figure out Edify, but how can the signing be done using `Nix tools?

Edit -- from build/core/definitions.mk

You don't need to sign CWM/TWRP packages...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Yeah it's been a while since I started messing with edify :D. It's sad that there isn't much out there that will teach you about cwm 3+ edfiy. Lots of amend tutorials but edify is more complex. I still want to write a guide about this.

Like airfluip said, the zips don't need to be signed.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dak_181:
alright guys im having some trouble theming the messages app. i want to switch out the bubbles around sent and received texts with the ones from handcent. i pulled the pngs from handcent and want to replace the .9.pngs in the mms.apk with those. i resized them in photoshop, opened with draw9patch from sdk tools added the .9 borders and whatnot, saved them. decompiled mms.apk and replaced the old ones with the ones i made (renamed them exactly the same and made sure theres the same number of pixels) then recompiled and signed the mms.apk. i renamed the one on my phone in system/app to add .bak and then copied the new mms.apk from my sd card and changed the permissions to match. but now when i open it it just force closes. what did i do wrong? im using apk manager 4.9 to do the decompiling btw
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidGraphix:
Here's what I would do. Use xUltimate-d9pc-x86 to compile the draw9patch after you make your draw9patch adjustments, then put open your Mms.apk via 7zip. Then drag your 9.png's you modified over to hdpi folder. Done. PM me if you have any problems.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gtg465x:
Instructions:

1) Create a folder on your internal SD card called Voodoo. Then create another folder inside of it called disable-lagfix.

2) Make sure the Samsung USB drivers are installed. Installing Kies is a good way to accomplish this. It shouldn't matter which version of Kies you install as they all contain the same USB driver.

3) Download and unzip Odin_Infused_Gingerbread_Kernel_v1.zip.

4) Right click on Odin3_v1.81.exe and run it as administrator.

5) Place your phone into download mode. Do this by powering it completely off and then holding down both volume buttons while plugging in the USB cable.

6) Make sure your phone shows up in Odin as COM##.

7) Click the PDA button and choose PDA_Infused_Gingerbread_Kernel_v1.tar.md5.

8) Press Start.

9) If the phone doesn't automatically reboot after it completes the flash, just pull the battery and then replace it and turn on the phone.

10) You should now be rooted and see the Superuser app installed on your phone.

Optional post root procedures:

-You may want to install BusyBox from the Market after rooting. It's required by some root applications.

-If you would like to revert to the stock kernel after rooting, follow the same procedure but instead use Odin_Stock_Rogers_UXKG3_Kernel.zip. You will not lose root by reverting to the stock kernel. If you enabled Voodoo lagfix at some point, you must disable it before reverting to the stock kernel.

-If you would like to enable Voodoo lagfix, just delete the Voodoo folder you created on your internal SD card and reboot.

-You may access CWM recovery while using the kernel you flashed to get root. To access it, power off your phone and with the phone powered off hold both volume keys and the power button for about 10 seconds and then release.

-You may install my Infused v2 ROM if you wish. Just enable Voodoo lagfix and then follow the instructions titled "Installation from stock or from Infused v1" in my thread. You will not experience the known bugs listed for the ROM like us AT&T owners.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] xchaotiKittenx:
thanks for guide gtg! just one question, (first time using odin) when I put my infuse into download mode, in odin it says com 05...not COM##...is that okay?

thanks!!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gtg465x:
Yep. ## just means some number, any number.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bluetoothless:
Com port number doesn't matter; hence the ## designation. Your computer will assign whatever I/O port is currently available. May not always be 05. just as long as you wait 'til one is assigned.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] xchaotiKittenx:
ahhh awesome thanks guys! I just wanted to double check =) I'll let you know how it goes !!

[Samsung Infuse 4G] xchaotiKittenx:
Quick question out of curiousity.. When wr flashed the infused gingerbread kernal.. Was it not supposed to erase everything on the phone? not complaining just curious how it works as i thought it was supposed.

Thanks again!! still working awesome and improved batt life!!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Frooty:
Flashing a kernel doesn't erase any data at all. The kernel is what makes the system boot and work, but it isn't tied to your apps at all.

An analogy I can think of is when you change an engine in a car(change a kernel in a phone), none of the CDs in your radio/songs on your mp3 player(apps/data on your phone) are effected at all.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
kernel are backend, drivers and such. they are independent of the rom And data. roms can also be flashed without clearing data even in Odin but many devs write scripts that wipe because left over data can cause many issues, especially if there are roms for different carriers and different OS versions available.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] xchaotiKittenx:
Ahhh i see! both very helpful responses :) thanks guys makes a ton more sense now !! :D
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Chewy11:
Nice to see some other Canadian Infuse Owners!

You guys(and gals!) rooted?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] xchaotiKittenx:
Yupp i agree ! I was wondering where we all were lol. I am. Are you on stock chewy?

sent from my bad ass infuse :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Chewy11:
yeah am still on stock, waiting for GB to 'mature a bit'. Also looking forward to some OC action with the kernels.

Edit: I was rooted with GTG465x's rooting kernel for a few days , then had a couple days with lagfix on, it was much faster! Back on stock one now mostly because I REALLY missed the accelerometer sensor.

Is a fix for the sensor issue in this kernel possible? Any other known bugs?

Am I right In thinking that its best to stay out of clockwork kernels, and to flash back to e3 for daily driver duty on the phone.

Would it be feasible to get a Rogers Kernel with Voodoo and Lagfix on e3?

Thanks for any help!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] esuohe:
I hope this isn't a silly question, but...

If I just wanted to root, and stick with the stock Roger's kernel from the get-go, can I just run Odin3_v1.81.exe and select the PDA_Stock_Rogers_UXKG3_Kernel.tar.md5 ? OR do I absolutely need to have Infused pushed first.

Thanks! First time Android user, and looking forward to rooting this kickass device.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tyshemi:
U can flash kernels. Alone
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gtg465x:
You need to flash the Infused kernel first and then flash back to the stock kernel. The Infused kernel is what does the rooting.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gabby131:
@gtg465x

So this kernel is based on stock Rogers but with root and voodoo lagfix...please correct me....thanks :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Chewy11:
No the ROOTER kernel is not stock(I believe GTG465x is source, and I flashed it before Rogers dumps were made), but its the way to root for Rogers Infuses. The phone worked fine here on that kernel, sensor issue was only one I encountered, Voodoo lagfix WAS quicker too. Be sure to follow Voodoo removal instructions before flashing back to stock kernel. The stock kernel retains root and restores perfect accelerator sensor function.

I am a USER, not a DEV ,so please correct me if I'm wrong, I have a thirst for knowledge.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] gabby131:
thanks.....i read further in the OP that i can go back to stock kernel w/o loosing root. well lagfix is awesome! specially for me who wants stock ROMs.... :)

I doesn't appear you can have a bluetooth work with the Mesmerize for lack of the right BT profile.

BUT perhaps I'm wrong and hope so...

Has anyone gotten a BT keyboard to pair and actually work?

Thanks!

[Samsung Mesmerize] frozn00:
The only rom I have tested that works on the mesmerize that supports bluetooth HID profile is CM7. I am not a programmer so I don't know what is involved with somehow porting the way CM7 is able to support this (bluetooth keyboard, wiimote, etc). I would love to see some type of flash that replaces whatever is necessary on the stock rom that makes it work. I am very appreciative for all the rom support his phone has now for all the developers here that support and port for it. I am running PNP 1.1 and it works great...HID support would be awesome if it is possible :)

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dc/dc:
I'm not sure if this annoys anyone else, but I really hate the stretched out 3G icon that Verizon put into their ROMs to replace the EvDO label. Is there any way to replace this with the standard size 3G label that shows when connected to UMTS networks or just go back to the old EvDO icon?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andybones:
if you are talking about these two icons, it's very easy to make a MM theme or .zip to change this. I actually love the bigger 3g icon.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] 1107963:
Upload the SystemUI.apk from your rom and Ill change it for you... I Personally like the MIUI 3g Icon!!!

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dc/dc:
Here ya go. Thanks in advance!

I don't mind the MIUI ones, but I prefer the HTC...

Edit: I unzipped the file to check out the contents, and I have a few more favours if they're doable. I would like it to show the 3G+ icon when on Rev. A, 3G for regular EvDO, and the other ones left as is. Also, would it be possible to use the six bar signal icons instead of the ones with four?

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdre:
So after lurking in these forums for a few months, I've finally decided to put a different ROM on my MT4G, but it seems like most of the guides are out of date. Is it still OK to use Visionary if I'm going to flash to a Gingerbread-based ROM afterward? And if I want to use Good for Enterprise, what do I use to unroot and re-root any of the ROMs that are pre-rooted to begin with? I'm not afraid to tinker, but this is my first Android phone and I don't want to get it wrong. Help? :)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
The ROM that you're going to flash has absolutely nothing to do with the ROM you currently have - and the ROM you currently have (and nothing else) has everything to do with the rooting method.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdre:
I guess what I'm trying to ask is do I need to perm root the current ROM in order to flash the device to a different ROM?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] halfcalf:
You are going to need perm root

More information on perm vs temp see here (or use google search)

There are a couple guides on how to gain perm root (click on the link in my sig for a list of a few guides under the "Rooting" section of the resource bible)

I personally used the terminal emulator version of this method when rooting my mt4g
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lowandbehold:
Once you achieve S=Off and permroot your phone, there is no need to do it from ROM to ROM. Your phone will remain rooted until you decide to unroot it.

Ok, thanks! Will give it	a try tomorrow.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdre:
Next question... :D Now that I've perm rooted, tried a few ROMs, and settled on one (Generation-X stock), does anyone know if Gingerbreak works to re-root the device if I were to unroot this ROM (in order to use Good for Enterprise)? I'd hate to back myself into a corner I can't get out of...

Hello everyone. I was wondering if this would work:

Root, remove all bloatware, and then unroot and get OTA update. Will my phone, after OTA, remain without Bloatware?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
The short answer is - no.

The longer answer is - you won't get the update unless you flash it manually as PD15IMG (which wipes and reformats everything anyway).
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AntonJart:
what I mean is to root the phone, remove the apps like Asphalt, friend streem, etc. Then unroot it and wait till I get stock OTA
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1stloc:
I think friend stream is removable but I may be wrong
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lowandbehold:
No. Once you get the official OTA you will be subject to all the T-mobile bloatware. If you really want the stock gingerbread ROM, there is a rooted version with and without the new radio in the development forums.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eqjunkie829:
You can get rid of the bloatware or you can have the gb update, but you cant do both until an exploit to root the update comes out.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
I understood what you've meant, and the answer doesn't change - no, you can't do it, the OTA will bring EVERYTHING on the system back to stock or won't work at all.
